I'm going to start wearing my Covid masks in public starting today.
Not only will it help our immuno-compromised friends, but it is also a subtle act of resistance. It would also help us find each other. The masks could be our version of MAGA hats, only that we love and not hate.
I have to say, at some point we are going to have to start paying for entertainment this good. (https://www.democraticunderground.com/100219696372)
And of course the Branch Covidians chime in:

I always wear one when I am indoors in a public place. To my surprise, I haven't had any negative comments about that. Surprised.

I'm over 70 and my doctor told me to do so, so I do. My wife does, too.
You know, I can see dumb dipshits like Govs. Abbott and DeSantis outlawing them

Covid-19 remains a lethal risk, something I want to minimize.
Been through several boxes so far.
I promise I did not make this up.
If they still wear masks, and they love being in confined spaces, why can we put them in camps? Ask for a friend.

#Resistance Liberals Tattoo Themselves Blue to Oppose Fascism, Spot ‘Safe People’
I don’t suppose we really needed more evidence that we have a hefty mental health pandemic on our hands in the West — that case has already been adjudicated for anyone paying attention — but, boy, has this election really ripped any remanence of a veneer of sanity off.
After the election of Donald Trump, many white women are feeling betrayed by the 53% of their peers who voted for him. Their answer? A blue bracelet.
What started as a way for white women to subtly signal that they supported Vice President Kamala Harris for president has ballooned to a veritable social media movement…
Trump has been openly racist and sexist during his entire time on the political stage, including during this campaign. Despite this, 53 percent of white women—according to exit polls—voted for him. (Brief caveat that exit polls are not firm polling demographic data, which we will have in the coming weeks.)…
In the wake of this reality, white women who voted for Harris online began to post… that they wished there was a way for them to know which of their fellow white women were on their side, and which voted for Trump. Others expressed a desire to signal to women of color that they were not Trump supporters…
Many white women are also encouraging their peers to not make their own bracelets but to buy them from Black-owned jewelry companies. On TikTok, a small business owner named Alicia shared some options from her company, Beaded & Balanced Jewelry, saying she’d sold more than 200 since the trend began*. She even made a “unity bracelet” with blue beads specifically for it.
But this lady, who appears to have way bigger problems than a naughty orange man as president, has an even better — and by that I mean more clinically insane — idea: let’s tat our wrists blue because tattoos are “more permanent, more serious.”
Obviously, this is an incredibly stupid virtue signal that should serve as a blaring alarm for anyone in these people’s lives who cares about their mental welfare.

Kind of brings up an interesting point: if we're going to stick them in camps and mark them, like Hitler did (and like they secretly want, because most liberals fantasize about being oppressed), we are going to have to come up with a way to contend with all the bullshit tattoos these people already have. Used to be, every forearm was clean as a whistle and you could put a number on with no trouble whatsoever. Now, you've got people all inked up with everything from old Alanis Morissette tats to the formula for Oxytocin.
Maybe we REMOVE their tats when we put them in camps. Seems more efficient.

1. No pile of masks will protect people from your stupid.
2. Supposedly culturally wise DU-folk don't know that east Asian people wear masks when they have a cold or flu but still go to work? This Neanderthal has been seeing this for quite a few years. So that random masked person you see in the mall is probably not a POed Prog, they're just following their culture's habits.

Couldn't you just where a hat or a shirt that says something like "I'M STUPID!"? Oh! You could wear a hat labeling yourselves as "STUPID" while wearing a shirt that gives the specific field that your particular stupid focuses on! For instance, the shirt could read: Men CAN have menstrual cycles.

Should conservatives apologize for failing to conform to your ignorant stereotypes? And for unknowingly demonstrating that that DU Trumpster-In-The-Store :bouncy: s are stupid fiction?

Covid-19 remains a lethal risk, something I want to minimize.
Been through several boxes so far.
1. Just about any disease has some "lethal risk" to someone. Why would Covid be an exception?
2. In the real world, someone who tracked such publicly available data noticed that the winter 2021-2022 mega-surge was far less deadly than the winter 2020-2021 surge. Whatever combination of recovery-resistance, vaccine-resistance, sage-burning-binding-spells, and phase-of-the-moon appeals to you, Covid has become far less deadly than it was in 2020 and early 2021.
3. Why do I suspect that Tactical Peek is using industrial rather than medical N95 masks, possibly KN95 masks rather than true N95 masks, has not done the work to be sure the masks worn actually fit properly, and probably wears whatever masks it wears incorrectly.

You just helped me realize something SVPete. If they were as eager to wear a wrapper on their tallywackers as they are to wear a mask on their faces, they wouldn't have to be so concerned about not having free reign to murder unborn babies.

Sweet, I have over 20000 masks I want to sell. I'll take DUmmy money. :-)

A better show of resistance would be to tattoo numbers on your forearms.

It is so laughable that many of the leftist mouthpieces have been claiming that incoming President would round up journalists and put them in camps. That is their fevered dream, and you're right I do think they do secretly fantasize about it. While admittedly I don't watch that dreck, we NEED to hear their idiocy as many of us do via montages and clips on a daily basis. We certainly don't want to get rid of you, just like the DUmp we enjoy our laughs at your expense.

Admittedly, my 96ish hour Schadenboner is still at full mast. Reading the left's misery is my own personal Viagra.
(Apologies for posting that same sentiment recently, but I refuse to stop being giddy).

This is nothing new at all. Bush was supposed to put them in camps and cancel elections. Remember that? They even posted FEMA documents that supposedly outlined plans for it. Every liberal has an oppression fetish: they want to believe that they are SO important, that their existence is SO extra-meaningful, that someone sees the need to silence THEM and make THEM the hero in some stupid book that will never be written anyway. Look at every single bit of media that their side treasures, but To Kill a Mockingbird as the canonical example. You write above that you're sporting some wood over events of the past week, but it shouldn't surprise you that at their core, liberals also have (what I suppose you could call) boners over the prospect of another 4 years of Trump. Whereas your wood will ebb as your daily duties soon require, liberals are downright priapristic. This would include the media, and it would not surprise me if Maddow herself has a lifesized replica of Trump's balled fist in her nightstand. They'll deny this, of course, but they think about the guy and what he might do more than you and I ever will.
A good source to understand this and a great many other spiritual maladies is Kierkegaard's The Concept of Anxiety and The Sickness Unto Death. Rollo May is a good source as well. In all modesty, I'm writing my own exposition on the matter, tentatively titled Liberals ****ing Suck Monkey Nuts. Probably will be self-published.

How precious...
These imbeciles believe they're difficult to pick out of a crowd. :whatever:

In solidarity, I’m going to join them. But I’m only going to wear a mask when I’m alone in my car. Otherwise, it’s free range, baby!

This is worth a cross-post:

I think they need to put them on their forehead a blue bullseye :lmao:

It is right now 2024. COVID is 2020.

:lmao:
The ones that live in states that outlawed masks are going to go to jail ... where they can wear a mask if they can find one.

There are not enough masks in the world to conceal some DU-Denizens' inner ugly.

I can make this shit go away lickety split. Just dummy up a fake email from one Trump official to another, saying we're going to require registered Democrats to wear COVID-style masks in public. In the blink of an eye, masks will become fascist and part of a RW plot to silence the left.

:hi5: Works for me! Could you cc the moronic bureaucrats in CA who have forced many working in healthcare to wear masks until the end of March?
